Abstract
Considerations included in this article shall be aimed to present how the creative activities and the development of the ideas of the French philosopher, Henri Lefebvre, affected the shaping of a modern city as combined with the idea ofspace dedicated to the creative class. The philosopher gave much thought to the issue of industrialisation, which, in his opinion, was a factor contributing to the degradation of the city image as a complete work of a number of generations. The creative and
professional activity of the representatives of the creative class can bring about the change of the modern city image, can contribute to the understanding of the idea of the city as propagated by Henri Lefebvre and to the recreation thereof.
